Nothing new was shown on this F30 with M Performance Parts at the 2012 Paris auto show, but it's still good eye candy. Here's a quick rundown of the parts you see in the photos below (we've also reposted photos we took at the 2012 AMI show in May). Also reference the full BMW M Performance Parts Catalog.

Anyone noticed the more beautiful M-performance steering wheel installed in the paris' F30 m-performance car yet?
Similar to the m-sport steering wheel of an M6 except for the alcantara and carbon.
Also more or less like the regular M-sport steering wheel for this car.

I have seen them in person, and they don't look any better than what you see here. I normally like all OEM wheels, especially the plus size versions. However, 20" on a 8" wide wheel is just an awkward proportion. Just too "wagon wheel" for my tastes, and the tires have a ridiculously thin sidewall.

Let's be honest, the only real performance upgrade here are the Brembo brake pack and suspension. The rest is basically for show. You could find lighter rims and actual aero equipment for real downforce elsewhere.

I guess if you want to be a poser on the streets, go ahead. Maybe I'm just too track-oriented myself. They better have a CCB pack for the F80 M3, though. >_>
